Classic Oceanfront Cottage w/ Ocean Views & Entertainment - Walk to Beach
Gorgeous ocean views and tranquil breezes are yours to enjoy at this classic East Boothbay vacation rental. Situated at historic Ocean Point and just 10 minutes from town, this charming cottage built in 1891 has been a popular summer retreat for generations. With four bedrooms, guests will relax in comfort and style here! The covered front deck, with its comfortable seating and coffee table, invites you to relax and enjoy the special view. Inside, this Maine cottage features painted wood floors and an exposed, rustic wood ceiling. The open living area boasts an eclectic mix of new and vintage furniture and decor such as an antique wooden sign salvaged from the historic old inn, the Atlantic House (where this cottage gets its name) that was once situated just a few hundred feet down by Shore Road and catered to Ocean Point guests a hundred years ago. A gas fireplace also adds ambiance and warmth.
There is no shortage of modern amenities here! The new 40-inch Smart LED TV comes with cable and Netflix streaming, a Blu-ray/DVD player, and a library of DVD movies. There is also free Spectrum WiFi access and a phone with free, unlimited nationwide calling. The adjacent dining room, with its oversized table and chairs, invites you to enjoy the ocean sights and sounds as you savor a hearty meal prepared in the newly remodeled kitchen. With its own ocean view, the bright, new kitchen is well equipped and features all new stainless steel appliances, including a fridge with an icemaker, a glass smooth-top range, a dishwasher, a microwave, a toaster, and a Keurig coffee maker, as well as a farmhouse sink with a garbage disposal. Down the hall is the airy and bright full bath. There is also a brand new, private washer/dryer in the hall closet next to the bathroom. The expansive main bedroom offers wood floors and a ceiling, plus an extra room through a curtained partition. Head up the quaint staircase of painted wood to the second level where white, dormer-style ceilings and wood floors evoke a magical feel. Here you’ll find the front bedroom with a brass bed and colorful quilt, with a priceless view of the ocean and sleepy sounds of the crashing surf. There are two more charming bedrooms for your relaxation. At Ocean Point, you’ll feel at peace in no time. From the ocean sights and sounds to the smell of fragrant pine to the beautiful sunsets, there is no place like this gorgeous Maine vacation rental!
The center, known as The Casino, is a short walk from the cottage and includes games, tennis courts, a playground, and community events like Sunday parent-child softball games that have been going on for generations. This rocky coastline is one of the most picturesque of mid-coast Maine, and from the front steps of the cottage, you’re just 100 yards from the water's edge, with open views of the Ram Island Lighthouse, working lobster boats, and passing sailing ships. Take a stroll along Shore Road and you'll come to the nearby marina where you can dock your boat or jump in for a swim. Across the marina is the historic Ocean Point Inn, one of Boothbay area's finest restaurants that also features a daily breakfast buffet. Grimes Cove Beach is also a short walk from the cottage in the other direction. East Boothbay has long been a summer mecca for New Englanders. With its classic architecture, quaint mom-and-pop shops, and restaurants, it's the perfect retreat.
